Pleasant Impressions of Jackson.

Among the clever press correspon-
dents who called on ThE CLARION dur
ing the session of the Dairymers' Con-
ven tion, was Mr.. A. L. Aldrich, OF the
Flint (Mich.) Globe, from whose inter
esting letter to that journal, dated New
Orleans February Is, we extract the
following:
The temperature here is about the
letter from Jackson, Mississippi, namely
80 degrees in the shade. Perhaps /
ought not to mention that lovely city
again without another and more appre-
ciatiye tribute to the genuine, unaffected
hospitality of those of its people whom
we met. The men are gentlemen and
the women are ladies. The unostenta-
tious and unmistakable goodwill mani
tested by them, their open-heartedness,
their frankness, and the absence of all
shoddyism have won from US an admi-
ration as sincere as their kindness has
been genuine. We have travelled good
deal-have been in all the principal
cities and many of the smaller ones east
of the Mississippi river, and in num-
Der west of it, and have never before
witnessed or been the recipients of so
generous and true hospitality. By

f. Drummers Not Taxable.

The Supreme Conrt of the United
States, Justice Bradley delivering the
opinion, decided Monday that law of
the State of Tennessee applicable to the
taxing district of Memphis, subjecting
"drummers and all persons not having
regular licensed house of business in
the district, offering or selling goods by
sample, to tax of SO week or $25
month" is unconstitutional. The Chief
Justice and Justices Field and Gray
dissented ON the ground that the law in
question is applicable to drummers
coming into the district from other
parts of Tennessee, as well as to those
from other States. and to relieve the
latter from taxation imposed on the
former would be a discrimination against
the citizens of the State.

nrroErrD FOR THE cLApros-nr JIM ROE.

Corinth Baptist church is without pas
tor. This is not an advertisement for one,
as it is not known that they want any.
kossuth will soon want teacher. Good
place for a good man.
Fulton is trying to build up school.
She is also finding iron ore i'll good quanti-
ties. Let her boom. May she prosper.
She deserves to do we'll.
Tupelo wants an iron foundry and ten
thousand dollar school house. The latter
with the right kind of teachers in it, would
be a good investment for the town.
Baldwin reports her school in flour
ishing condition. This little town has

and is not the sorriest town in North Mis-
sissippi, by good deal.
Verona is another one OF your literary,

Has good reputation for schools and NOR
ality.
One is very much surprised at the idle
bows white and black about Corlnth and
Iuka. This means trouble-trouble for
parents-trouble (?) for the cOurts-and
timber for the penitentiary. 1t is not iron
ore. nor factories, that this part OF the State
needs SO much as industry. There are
idle negroes enough about either OF the
towns mentioned to almost support the In
habitants of same.
We are getting crooked, socially, in these
parts. Walk through our towns in the
evening, and just after the church bells
ring. and you see here and there young
men who seem to be bending their ener-
eies and their bodies to carry load that
is too heavy for them. On closer inspec-
ton you find it to be the fellows girl!

WHATEVER may be said of the wis
dom of appointing nonresident negro
to the office OF Recorder of Deeds for the
District of Columbia, the confirmation
of Mr.. Trotter was a triumph for the
President The action of the Republi-
cans was complete back-down from
the position they assumed when Mat
thews' nomination was pending-that
they would not confirm colored Demo
crat. Senator Hoar, who called up the
nomination of Mr.. Trotter, and with all
but three of his Republican colleagues,
voted to confirm him, seems to have
drawn a distinction between Massa-
chusetts colored Democrat and New
York colored Democrat.

for Governor at the last election, which
he claims was the result of unfair treat
ment by Albeit and his friends. He
repudiates the suggestion that he made

To THE boast of Gov. Hill that the
largest majority ever given in New
York was that received by him when q
candidate for Lieutenant Governor in
1882, it is replied that while his major
ity was the largest, he did not really get
50 many votes as Mr.. Cleveland at that
time, by 6S2. Furthermore, it is shown
that in 1884 Mr.. Cleveland received
nearly 10000 more votes than he OBJ
tanned in 1882. And another very sig
nificant fact is that the Republican
nominee against Mr.. Cleveland in 1884
was voted for by more people in the
State Of New York than ever before
voted for any candidate.

The Meridian Neles is now publishing
the Associated Press dispatches, and the
citizens of Jackson may have the pleas
ure of reading, before breakfast, the
kilograms of the preceding midnight.
This speaks well for the News, and for
the prosperous and progressive city
where it is published. The only obiee-
ton we have TO the Neaos is that it goes
out of its way occasionally to indulge in
hings at the Capital City. 1t ought to
be more amiable, especially where there
appears to be so little provocation for
such unneighborly criticism as we some.
times see in its columns. The press
and people of Jackson rejoice in the
growth and prosperity of our great city

Death of Mr.. Beecher.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was stricken
with apoplexy Friday morning, and
lingering in state of coma, died yes
.erday morning at $50 o'clock. Mr..
Beecher was born at Litchfeld, Conn.
in 1918, and was graduate of Amherst
College. He is best known as the pastor
of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, where
for years he has maintained the reputa-
ton of being the greatest pulpit orator
in America, if not in the world. He
was for nearly twenty years the editor
of the New York Independent, and for
nearly twelve, of the Christina Union.
He has also printed several volumes of
his sermons.
Mr.. Beecher has been much criticised
for his unorthodox views concerning
the future state, and fairly successful
effort to smirch his morals was made q
few years since, but the fidelity of his
congregation has never been shaken.

then let the Congress have single term

ST.. LOUIS, March 3, 1857.
Last night sat in my room in my shirt
sleeves without fire until IL o'clock, with
perfect comfort.
/ remember the spring preceding the
last yellow fever epidemic-that the spring
opened very early. At that time / pre-
dicted that we would have fever in the
South. If this weather continues a few
days longer the willows on the banks of the
water-courses viii be green. What has
been may occur again, and so far as yellow
fever is concerned, l believe that long,
warm spring and summer will produce it /;
and if so, nothing but good sanitary con-
dition will prevent it.

this subject and urge the towns and cities
to active vigilence in this direction.
